Back on the road again!

Thats great! My wife and I love going to Lambert's! Anytime were close to that place we can't resist and go! Good luck!!

Larry and Patsy, wish Alice and I were on this western trip with you guys, as we had a ball last year. We are planning to go next year....so hope maybe you folks can go along with us. Good luck racing, be safe, and visit the Blueberry Hill restaurant near the track in Vegas. Our group ate there almost every day of our 11-day stay in Vegas last year!!!!!! Good food. We will be watching for your posts as you travel west. Joe and Alice Tysinger

Joe next time your in Vegas we need to get you a map of restaurant's in the area..LOL. I agree the Bluberry Hill is good and they have several in the area but.......there are a lot of great restaurants to be had

Well we drove 370 miles today. All the way to Joplin, MO. It is about 230 more to Noble, so we should be there by noon or so. The flyer says they don't start parking til 3. Do they usually wait til then? Here are a couple of shots from today:

Just a few miles from home. Exciting 2 lane blacktop!

The Courthouse in Wickliffe, KY

Nice curvy bridge going across the Ohio River

Going into Illinois across the Ohio River

That sign says "Welcome to Illinois"!

Main Street in the dead town of Cairo, IL

That sign says Missouri State Line. Somehow I am going to have to figure out how to get better pictures of the signs!

Missouri State Line again

Joe you are right. I should have said breakfast. We had some really good meals in Vegas and Pomona and can't wait to go again next year. Larry and Patsy your pictures are great and makes us feel as if we are there again
